Searching For The King

Following the success of the Dove Award winning musical, A Baby Changes Everything, David T. Clydesdale brings Searching for the King, a one-of-a-kind dramatic Christmas musical. A dynamic contemporary story parallels the biblical story delivering a message as powerful as the prophets and as relevant as today's headlines. Walter L. Black's exciting script juxtaposes one of the Magi (Mordecai) as he follows the Star of Bethlehem, with Benjamin, a soldier stationed in the Middle East 2,000 years later who is looking up at the same stars. They are both searching for the truth, and they both find it at the foot of the manger. The musical requires only six actors (3 male and 3 female) and features an engaging scene for children's choir as well as a thrilling mix of new songs and beloved carols. A detailed production manual and optional DVD will ensure that Searching for the King will deliver the heart of Christmas to your congregation and community.

"At last...a new music drama that will involve all facets of the fine arts ministry. In Searching for the King we have a flexible stage production plus the opportunity to use the choir. I really like the parallel drama technique - Biblical times along side the contemporary. If you've been searching for a drama since you did The Christmas Post, here it is."
